As someone who studied law in a European country, I can assure you the US would do well with a brand new constitution with modern fail-safes, a modern statement of rights and freedoms, and a better electoral procedure.

Constitutional science has advanced a lot since 1789.

LLMs are fancy autocomplete machines. You wouldn't expect your autocomplete to win a Pulitzer or Hugo or Newbery.

LLMs are excellent at rehashing what's already said. They are banal by definition. Banal does not make prizes.

Delighted to make the acquaintance of Buddo in the delightful Stromness Museum. Buddo is a whalebone figurine from about 2900BC, dug up at Skara Brae in the 1860s, given to the museum in a random box of unknown provenance in the 1930s, rediscovered in the stores in 2016 and now has pride of place…

It is fine to say, "this is stupid and not at all very historical, but I like it anyway, it's fun."

I have that view of many movies, including, ironically enough, Gladiator (2000) (but not the sequel, it was awful).

I imagine it's the same kind of reason they need to have a message to tell you that the date has changed and you will be redirected to the home screen.

That is, an utter mess of a codebase.
